Should I even bother seeking out the import or just pick up the Criterion?

If you're region free, go with the Second Sight UK release. It has the 8 mins of deleted scenes on it as a bonus feature. In my opinion, the film is better off without this 8 mins. Even still I would recommend the UK release and pick up a copy of the novel on your own if you're still interested.
